@stacksofplates said in Upgrading to Fedora 34:

I don't care for the new Windows-esque "installing updates don't power off your computer" screen on a reboot that was introduced in 34.

It was in 33 also if you did a clean install.

Ah I haven't used it in a while. I just saw it mentioned the other day.

@dave247 said in Install Windows as a Dual Boot after Fedora:

I'm not trolling...

Then I completely apologize for taking you out of context.

@DustinB3403 said in Oracle Linux Installation and performance seems insanely bad:

@Obsolesce CentOS as a product is dead, the alternatives are RHEL or CentOS Stream.

CentOS Stream is a totally different thing. Not what people consider alternatives. It is an alternative in the same way that Ubuntu or Windows is.

The real alternatives that are drop in replacements that work exactly the same and cost the same are Oracle Linux, AlamLinux and Rocky Linux.

@scottalanmiller said in BTRFS is not default on Fedora 33 Server Minimal:

Stratis is just an automation and communication layer for XFS and LVM

I did not know that.

I didn't either, was just researching it, lol. It makes it a lot more valuable, it is essentially taking the "one filesystem" advantages of ZFS or BtrFS and making them happen with traditional, mature technologies. Kind of a best of both worlds approach. Actually quite nice, if it works well.

@JaredBusch So... now that you've had this up and running for a while, care to report on how that is going? Inquiring minds are curious. Particularly w.r.t. resource utilization comparison, performance differences, etc. comparatively. I think you were on Mongo previously, correct? Cuz I am right there with you on the license bullshit. All it takes is one bump in the road, merger, and wham, history repeats and next major version changes license again - only this time to something closed. Have no interest in betting on community to fork and continue. Need a safer bet. It would appear that percona may have already done so w/their percona mongodb offering but I wonder if that would continue as a full fork if/when upstream became closed source.

@scottalanmiller said in ScreenConnect Unable to Start on Fedora 33:

Some updates can cause this to revert, so be aware that you might want to set something up to verify it.

What Updates? I have not seen an update to the Linux server version in months.

Something that touches that library.

ah, Fedora updates.. Understood.

Upgrading servers today.

@JaredBusch said in Setup Nextcloud 19.0.4 on Fedora 32:

The top post has been edited to now include the pretty URL and self signed SSL

HTTPS only. HTTP not open on the firewall.

I just followed these through start to finish.
Copy/Paste only.

@Pete-S said in How to use firewall-cmd to verify that tcp 80 & 443 is open?:

One thing that would be nice to have, something that I've used on hardware firewalls, is a command that will simulate packets through the firewall rules to see if they will pass or not.
I've not seen something like that for iptables/netfilter.

Not sure about simulating, but you can always send packets at it and use iptables -v to see the counters.

@scottalanmiller How's the Aspire Linux support working out ?

So far, it's been great. Really liking it.

Yeah. We have never seen it before.

So, no idea what I had installed that required python2-lxml

I removed it and the upgrade is proceeding as normal.

This is the SSL score.

I assume this is why the A rating and not A+

But not much to do about that since it is Cloudflare that is terminating.

@JaredBusch yeah, it's annoying that WP-CLI struggles with that.

@stacksofplates said in Remote PowerShell from Fedora to Windows:

Sssd works with multiple domains.

If sssd is installed will I be able to use -Authentication Kerberos without needing to join to a domain or when accessing Windows machines that isn’t joined to a domain?

No it only works for domains.

Modern laptop batteries are anything but dumb devices. Most of them got an SMBus interface, a bus derived from (and very similar to) I²C.

My guess is that either the firmware on this specific battery is bad, your host driver doesn't like the battery or you just had some dirty contacts and the host just couldn't talk to the battery.

@black3dynamite said in Mouse Issues on Windows 2019 on KVM Through Virt-Manager:

EvTouch USB Graphics Tablet is the default when selecting Server 2019 config template.

That's the one.

And the template didn't load properly when we selected it! It kept going back to Alpine!

So no idea what the exact fail combo is, but I am fully updated, and working, on a clean install.

Installed Fedora 31 Cinnamon from USB. Rebooted, I have only kernel 5.3.7-301 Removed dnf dragora GUI sudo dnf remove dnfdragora* -y Rebooted. Upgraded all but grub2 sudo dnf upgrade --refresh -y --exclude grub2* Rebooted, not I now have kernel 5.3.13-300 available and default. Upgraded grub2 sudo dnf upgrade --refresh -y, I did receive the above SELinux errors again, they may be normal? Rebooted, system working normally.

@black3dynamite said in Converting VMware VMs to KVM:

I haven't been keeping up with Windows Admin Center for awhile. Was that an option to manage Hyper-V?

It will be, but I'm not sure that it is yet. We've tried and not been able to get it working even internally anywhere, let alone externally. Once they figure out stability and authentication, I assume that it will be great for that. Being that this is 2016, it's going to suck hard. And if there is a Hyper-V issue, WAC would be down which is a problem in a small environment like this.
